Digital design has always been a hobby of mine, but it turned into a career by accident. In college, while helping a friend get his social media startup live, I fell in love with the passion and enthusiasm driving a small team of college kids to willingly work around the clock for something we believed in, and having fun while doing it. I was able to use the full spectrum of my skillsets and have it all come together to bring a product to life. Since then, I have spent my time working in an interactive advertising agency, advancing my technical skills in web/graphic/motion design, as well as developing professional skills in leadership, art direction, and presentation.
My strongest asset is the initiative and ability to "figure it out". I'm a natural problem solver intrigued by complex interactions, supported by a strong scientific curiosity and a logical mindset. I love learning and picking up new skills so I've been lucky enough to have the opportunity to learn a bit of everything in digital design. As an avid user and follower of the latest technological innovations and gadgets, I have developed a particular interest in social media and mobile design. I aim to become a jack-of-all-trades, master at many, constantly learning and nurturing my variety of interests while contributing to the advancement of the technology community.
